Description Pavel Stehule 2006-03-31 00:10:10 UTC
Hello

I try set 1600x1200 resolution for this monitor. I have i855 card and Xorg
6.8.1. I tryed lot of modelines, but I didn't find any line which monitor can
accept. For modelines I used internet available modeline calculators. All tests
finish error Out of range. Interesting is, monitor report different values, than
I used for calculation. I generated freq 60Hz and monitor reports from 80-63Hz.
I tested off DDC but without success. I used 855resolution too. This monitor
needs for 1600x1200 exactly 75/60Hz freq, and it's source of problems.

Can You help me. Is there support for this monitor? Or different modelines
calculator for LCD monitors. I am sure I used good values for Modeline calculations.

Thank You
Pavel Stehule

log xorg 6.9

This log don§t show any bug, but monitor show message: Frequency out of range
108Khz/88Hz Please change the display to 1600x1200 with 60Hz
Comment 3 Pavel Stehule 2006-04-05 22:22:30 UTC
I tested xourg 6.9 with new i810 driver from
http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/intel.html but without success. I used
-configure generated xorg.conf. Still I can work only in 1280x1200 resolution.
In higher resolution monitor show only message: Frequency out of range
108Khz/88Hz Please change the display to 1600x1200 with 60Hz

Regards
Pavel Stehule
Comment 4 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-10 18:34:57 UTC
You should upload logs from Xorg 6.9.
Comment 5 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-10 18:36:38 UTC
Actually, I can see the log for 6.9 - Sorry.

I think the problem is that you are defining your own modelines which are wrong.

You've defined a modeline that uses 65Hz which is more than your monitor can do.

Just try removing all your modelines, as the Xserver will use it's own
calculated ones anyway.

Comment 8 Pavel Stehule 2006-04-10 20:45:32 UTC
I tryed use xorg.conf without modelines first, but without success. I am sending
xorg.conf generated via --configure param which I use. I modifyed only mouse
params. And result is wrong, Frequency out of range 107Khz/87Hz
Comment 9 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-10 21:05:09 UTC
Ok. The easiest thing to do here is add

Option "NoDDC"

and make sure VertRefresh is set to just 60.

It's not help me. I set it and monitor reports: Frequency out of range
99Khz/80Hz.  I afraid it's serios bug :-(. Windows works fine.
Comment 11 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-10 22:23:44 UTC
Try going back to the driver that shipped with Xorg 6.9 (and not using my test
driver).

It's same. Can I do some detailed diagnostics?
Comment 13 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-10 22:38:32 UTC
Upload a log with those options and the Xorg 7.0 driver.

Comment 15 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-11 00:46:23 UTC
O.k. the log looks fine and if it still isn't working, I suggest you try seeing
if there is an updated Video BIOS for your machine from the manufacturer.

In Linux, we rely on the Video BIOS setting the mode, whereas Windows doesn't.

I found only one bios update from july 2005 and applyed them. But this update
hadn't any efect on VIDEO BIOS. My video bios number is 2991. I didn't find any
way how I can update it :-(. Is there any chance for success? I know nothing
about similar bug. 

Comment 17 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-12 22:44:00 UTC
Try adding this to your Device Section....

Option "MonitorLayout" "NONE,CRT+LFP"

Comment 18 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-12 22:46:37 UTC
If that doesn't work, remove the MonitorLayout command and add this ModeLine to
your Monitor Section..

ModeLine "1600x1200" 162 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250

I tested all, but without success. If I set Monitor Layout, then I get screeen
1024x768. I uploaded log

Does 1280x1024 work at 60Hz ??

(In reply to comment #21)

No 80Khz/75Hz .. it's limit, 60Hz is limit only for 1600x1200
Comment 23 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-13 04:22:47 UTC
That's not the point. Does any resolution work at 60Hz ??

Yes, I tested 640x480 31khz/60Hz or 1280x1024 65kHz/61Hz, I used modeline
#Modeline "1280x1024" 110.29 1280 1368 1496 1688 1024 1025 1028 1089

Comment 25 Alan Hourihane 2006-04-14 18:41:12 UTC
You might want try getting the 'modesetting' branch code from the git repository
and building it yourself which doesn't rely on the VideoBIOS.

If you've any problems doing this, I suggest joining the xorg lists and posting
there for help.

I tested it. Without success. This driver is very unstable yet and finish with
wrong card's settings. I had to restart computer. When I run it with generated
configuration I got freq 170Khz/136Hz. But this driwer doesn't work on res.
1280x1024 too.
Comment 28 Alan Hourihane 2006-05-08 20:52:35 UTC
Marking as duplicate of 643 because the new modesetting branch should deal with
all vbios resolution issues.
